How is Nessa supposed to know that Audrey had feelings for Ken? As a professional hair stylist with sooooo many years of experience, Audrey should have offered to 'fix' it. Nessa probably would have said 'no' .... terrible, unbelievable scene -- made me cringe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-89949612230159158302015-12-14T04:43:13.603+00:002015-12-14T04:43:13.603+00:00Anon 152 has a point.

What would Audrey want with him after he was sniffing around her for weeks, but when Nessa made herself available he went for it. To me it just seems that he wasn't truly interested in Audrey - he was just after a warm body. I hope Audrey has enough self esteem at her age now and just sees him as the fair weather friend that he MartesBC https://www.blogger.com/profile/03426092089746578198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-62523435198550535612015-12-13T16:32:10.279+00:002015-12-13T16:32:10.279+00:00What I would've liked more in the Roy/Carla sc...What I would've liked more in the Roy/Carla scene is:<br /><br />Carla nervous about it through the night and after Roy and Cathy leave, she gets the guts to finally ask so she races over to the cafe as hes closing the doors.

She is so desperate to be loved, as we have always known, so she is completely blind to Brendan's faults and his true character, and if any of her friends disapprove then she will continue trying to convince herself that they are just jealous Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-87775952531900710352015-12-12T18:57:00.328+00:002015-12-12T18:57:00.328+00:00I'm well aware of the nuances of Roy and Carla...I'm well aware of the nuances of Roy and Carla's special friendship and have written at length in praise of it.

Their awkwardness is what makes their scenes endearing to those of us who understand Roy and Carla's beautiful friendship. I don't know what expressions you saw, but I saw Carla trying to fight back tears when Roy said it would be his honour. It was a lovely scene. <br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
